John Doe, I am responding on behalf of the person you were referring to because he is not even registered on this forum, and has never written on here. It is pretty easy to check an IP address and you will see that he would never participate in anything so immature and embarrassing as to be involved in these comments. (even you may have given yourself away with your comments John Doe).
Like you, we were wondering who whistleblower is because they have been quite defamatory assuming the identity of Matthew, so we will be getting the IP address traced. (PY can you please assist here).
There may be whingers in this sport, and he definitely isn't one of them. Any issue he may have is being handled through official channels. (which is the only time he has taken this avenue in almost 20 years involvement in the sport), and he only takes it to stand up for a young runner who has run so honestly and had a crack every time he has raced.
We were only advised recently of what has been written on here (as he rarely looks at it and we spend our time training and enjoying our running), and is very disappointed with comments made. He loves the sport of running and improving himself and the runners he trains. Even though it wasn't him writing the post you have referred to his contribution to this sport, I probably don't have time to list them here, but his integrity as a runner is unquestionable, running honestly and winning from tight handicaps and now introducing new runners to the sport.
As Matthew has said, he doesn't have time for any of this. I feel it was important to state that he is was not whistleblower, but we now won't make any further comments.
